I listened to the M22s last night and then put the b speakers on and went to the bedroom - same receiver and same cd.

I am not going to do that again!! The athenas are nice. The M22s are stupendous!

I am hoping to be happy with the Athenas. I probably will a/b them like this again (not a real a/b test I know) but not soon. I want to like the athenas and not compare them to incredible but more expenxive speakers that I can't afford to buy more of at this time!

M22s, QS4s, M2 center, Hsu stf-1.
